Absolutely, the alkalinity issue is caused by the variable evaporation rates. I didn't mean to suggest that vodka dosing was causing unstable alkalinity.
However, based on what I've read, I am getting burnt tips and occasionally RTN'ing some of my SPS corals when my alkalinity goes above 8.0 dkH BECAUSE I am vodka dosing. I'm reading that if I were not vodka dosing, I would not suffer burnt tips/RTN when my alkalinity crept up above 8.0 dkH. That is why I was hoping the nitrate reductor would contain the effects of vodka dosing in the reactor itself.
I'll check out denitrator coils.
